2.      The Swiss National Bank's substantial foreign exchange sales have helped boost the franc's strength and mitigate the impact of import inflation due to rising energy prices.

-        Support line of 150.574

Commentary/ Reason:

1.      The Japanese yen have been weakening from multiple bond buying activities that saw price going as far as 151.72, far above intervention level that the BoJ say they are monitoring which question whether they still have any cards left to control their currency valuation.

2.      The weakness came as stronger dollar and higher Treasury yields prompt investors to assess Federal Reserve monetary policy, with the recent Bank of Japan's measures to address long-term interest rate gaps having failed to alleviate selling pressure on the yen.

3.      Although there is no substantial economic events from Japan, fed chair Powell speech is in sight other than German inflation data, UK economic growth, and US unemployment claims.

4.      The price is expected to continue rising as there is less expectation that the BoJ can interfere strengthening USD as fed officials say the door is open to more interest rate hike while a break in immediate resistance will cement its continuation.

5.      Technical indicators are in majority pointing toward buy as well as moving averages as prices rally since the start of the week.
